Who are the Jackson posters that can tell us a little about their team, give us some insight into the game, strengths, weaknesses, etc., would like to hear from those folks this week?

I have some preconceived ideas of what to expect but kinda looking for their perspective.

I work in Jackson, all these guys are saying the Burg will wear them out quick. The OL is sucking wind midway through the second. They don't throw very well. 90 percent run. They say Burg wins by 28. I say Burg by 17.

Jackson was able to move the ball last year when they just lined up power football and went right at Burg. Problem Jackson ran into is with that offense you have to play near perfect and they would get a hold or false start and it would put them behind for down and distance. I think Jackson will try to bring this same game plan to start the game this year, however Burg will be a little more prepared for it. Don't think Jackson has the overall team speed to keep up with Burg for 4 quarters could be close for couple quarters but in the end see Burg taking this by 2-3 scores. 35-14....35-21 range.

Jackson has a big and strong O line .
4 seniors and a junior.
Some hard nosed running backs who hit the hole hard
A few speedsters who are 4.6 type guys
A young soph quarterback
They have not thrown the ball bad , they just haven't thrown the ball often.
An excellent kicker with a college type leg

As far as conditioning I haven't noticed the line being gassed out at all. But maybe I'm missing something

[noreply66]

Neither team has had a knock down drag out game yet. This game will show what one is conditioned most and where the talent is. Two good team here. Good luck to both.

I'm just going from I'm told. A lot of hands on hips. I did here the kicker has a great leg but "not very accurate"? Is that correct? I don't want to take word of mouth to the bank. So I'll just ask now. Lol.

Jackson has been the underdog in 6/6 of the last meetings between these two schools.

Jackson when playing local area teams here of late is usually a slight favorite or at the very least even money, so when for the last 5 years you are the underdog every single time that is saying something for Burg and the program they have established.

The 90% run doesn't bother me, the last time we won (the only time lol), we passed a whopping total of two times as I recall. This is the same year Burg went to the regional finals and gave Hartley all they wanted and then some. In fact grinding out first downs and playing keep away from what sounds like a potent Burg offense seems like it may be good strategy. I know, I know, easier said than done as it sounds like Burg run D is stout.

Big momentum shift plays can't happen. Burg is like 3/3 on onside kicks, a couple successful fake punt conversions, etc.. Those plays bring even more "swagger" to a team that has plenty to begin with. So hopefully we can eliminate those. Maybe instead of dropping two back on a punt return we drop one back or if good field position drop no one, I don't know but Burg special teams execute that stuff well and when it works it is a big swing for both teams. The 9-yard (lol) onside kick last year followed by the Burg fumble picked up by the one person outside the 21-man pile and ran in for a TD can't happen hopefully if you are an Ironman fan.

Looking forward to this game even though most of the money is on Burg, I think the staff and players are up to the challenge. Hope Friday night is clear 70-degree evening. Go red!

We'll they average about 350 yards a game on the ground so if they put hands on hips please keep doing it

Great post! Always enjoy your input! I agree, I think Jackson running the ball and the clock is a very good strategy against this burg team. Will the iron men be able to run on burg for four quarters though? That's the question. Both teams know what the other brings to the table. I think over all Jackson has the size advantage and burg has the speed.. IS IT FRIDAY YET???!!!!
